The growing participation
of the private sector in the promotion and financing of new infrastructures makes it necessary for new players to get involved in this field. CAF has recently developed some RAILWAY CONCESSIONS solutions, adapting to the needs of their clients in an ever more complex market. It is also the case that the Public Administration increasingly turn to private funding to execute new infrastructure projects.
The operations follow the classic BOT format (Construct, Operate, Transfer)
Our strong points, amongst others, for the conception and execution of projects are:
- The closeness to the train operators, allowing us to have a better understanding of their problems and to propose specific solutions.
- Our knowledge of financial markets, permitting a faster search of direct resources, private and public financial resources and the capacity to cover risks.
- The ability to relate with other suppliers allows us to create groups with companies from different sectors to work on complex projects (civil works, signaling, communication, electrification, operators...)
- Finally, our experience and credibility transmits the trust required for implementation and success.
Here are the examples of such projects:
- Seville Metro units. The Consortium including CAF has been awarded the Tender for construction and commercial operation for 35 years of the first metro units line in Seville , which will also be the first in Spain to be completely managed by private enterprise, taking advantage of the new administrative tender model.
